Twin screw air compressors

A range of designs and operating conditions

Used to supply high-pressure air for many applications, twin screw air compressors feature two meshing rotors turning in opposite directions inside a housing.

Whether the screw compressor type is dry-running or oil-flooded, the bearings operating within must support rotor loads and help ensure accurate radial and axial rotor positioning. To help improve energy efficiency, the bearing arrangements must optimize rotor head clearance. And they must do so reliably, often at high speed, with low friction, low noise generation and high running accuracy.
